DIALECTICAL
BEHAVIOR THERAPY
Build Skills for Balance and Resilience
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is designed for individuals who feel overwhelmed by their emotions or stuck in patterns that cause distress in daily life and relationships. It’s especially helpful for those struggling with mood disorders, trauma responses, impulsivity, or self-harming behaviors.
At Heatherstone Counseling Services, we offer individual DBT-informed therapy and a weekly DBT skills group, enabling clients to develop skills in a structured and supportive environment.

Mindfulness

Emotional Regulation
Understand and manage intense emotions more effectively.
Distress Tolerance
Cope with crisis situations without making things worse.
Interpersonal Effectiveness
Communicate clearly, assert needs, and maintain healthy boundaries.
Our DBT therapists create a safe space for you to learn, practice, and apply these skills to real-life situations.
